Set values between indexes to value - Python

Question

I have a list, temp = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] If I want to set the values between index 1 and 4 to 9, what is the best way to do this? Obviously a simple for loop would do the trick, but can splicing be used here?

Something like temp[1:4] = 9?

you can use :

 temp[1:4] = [9] * 3

Or:

temp[1:4] = [9,9,9]
